Robert Rodriguez is doing a show where he gives 6 filmmakers $7,000 and challenges them to make their first feature length film in 14 days.
Naturally, I felt compelled to sign up. The app is sent in, and though I think I did just swell on the writing portions I don't think my enthusiasm is going to make up for the fact that my best work looks like this:

It's making me feel invigorated though. Just filling it out gave me a sense of accomplishment in my work, miniscule and shitty as it is.
Anyway, let's talk about the films we've made. What can you show us? Will you be signing up for this? Does it really matter anyway?

Shouldn't he adjust the $7000 for inflation

Thanks m8, much appreciated.
Anyway, judging from what I'm seeing so far unless this was like your final thesis film or something there's no reason you should have failed. I had a good couple of chuckles.
Sound's garbage, but every student film's sound is garbage so that's normal. Also the dude in the red room's voice is fucking awesome

Considering all the free shit you can get on the internet these days $7000 is more than enough.
Also, fun fact: Most of El Mariachi's budget went to actual film. There's only about $600 on screen at any given time.

I should have studied film as i wanted and not a fucking stem career that i dropped out after. Follow your dreams anon.

>tfw got into a major that included film but also required learning code and graphic design
>tfw dropped out
I've got no way to go but towards filmmaking now. Working with my dad fixing car hail dents in the interim, along with working at a theater.
I signed up for one of these and it was $7000 in prop money worth about $5 or a bad personal check

As corny as ir sounds, If you dont do what you love you die inside, which is worst tnah be actually death. Also working using a true skill like repairing stuff is more worthy than being an office slave
